This patch fixes a bug found by Nish Aravamudan
|
|
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/5/15/220) where the driver is not following
|
|
the spec (it is not aligning the rx buffer on a 16-byte boundary) and the
|
|
hypervisor aborts the registration, making the device unusable.
|
|
|
|
The fix follows BenH's recommendation (https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/7/20/461)
|
|
to replace the kmalloc+map for a single call to dma_alloc_coherent()
|
|
because that function always aligns to a 16-byte boundary.
|
|
|
|
The stable trees will run into this bug whenever the rx buffer kmalloc call
|
|
returns something not aligned on a 16-byte boundary.
